Christine and Steve

How We Met

Steve and I have been good friends since 7th grade. In an interesting turn of events, one night we shared our first kiss after being friends for almost 10 years. It was one of those kisses you relive a million times over and over, it was just perfect. Less than a year later we admitted to never forgetting that one amazing first kiss and began dating.

How He Asked

We have been dating for 3 years now and one day my best friend asked to take a photo shoot of us to launch her new photography business. I said yes I would love to and the shoot took place at a Christmas Tree Farm, she thought it would be cute to follow Steve and I while we cut down our first real Christmas tree together (I had never cut one down before). On the last shot we were decorating a Christmas Tree and I discovered a note folded up and stuck in one of the ornaments. The note went on about how Steve never knew growing up I would end up being the one for him, but he was certain all these years later that we were meant to be. After reading the note I looked down and saw him on one knee asking me to marry him.

I cried for at least 5 minutes straight, it was the most magical day of my entire life and now I cannot wait to marry my best friend.
